I found this site titled "Toyota Factory Service Manual"
[url]http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/FSM.shtml[/url]

I just now called the 800 number provided there but Toyota is closed for
Martin Luther King day (bummer - how come I had to work but they don't).

Toyota Material Distribution Center
750 West Victoria St
Rancho Dominguez/Compton, CA 90220-5538 USA
800.622.2033 (outside CA)(M-F: 7-5 PST)
800.443.7656 (inside CA)
310.818.4630 (in or outside CA)

I would rather have the manual full time so I don't think I'll get a
subscription to [url]http://techinfo.toyota.com[/url] unless I can get web get (wget)
to work as a spider to download the entire site to my PC hard disk in a
half hour :)

There are free Toyota 4Runner shop repair manuals at the AutoZone site
[url]http://www1.autozone.com/servlet/UiBroker?[/url]
ForwardPage=/az/repair_info/repair_guide/repair_guide.jsp

Unfortunately (for me), the closest AutoZone has for me is a link titled
"Toyota Pick-Ups/Land Cruiser/4Runner 1989-1996" at
[url]http://www1.autozone.com/servlet/UiBroker?[/url]
ForwardPage=az/cds/en_us/0900823d/80/19/8e/30/0900823d80198e30.jsp
with a door-removal procedure and exploded diagram at
[url]http://www1.autozone.com/servlet/UiBroker?[/url]
ForwardPage=/az/cds/en_us/0900823d/80/16/28/c0/0900823d801628c0.jsp
but it does not cover the 1998 model year. Bummer.

I was surprised to find free online shop manuals so if you know of an
online exploded diagram of the 1998 model year, that would be wonderful.
